If you accidentally leave your front door wide open and somebody steals all your stuff, you'll also say that you were robbed.

There might be a legal distinction between "breaking and entering", "burglary", "trespassing" etc, and in a legal sense, whether the front door was open might have some impact on whether the act was illegal or not and what the consequences are, but in colloquial usage, you've still been robbed.
